I think the worst one out at the moment is that coke zero one.

'Hey remember me? I'm the one who sold you your coca cola. What if i told you you were actually drinking coke zero?'

Truly awful. With the amount of monet coca cola have thats the best they could come up with?!

Not only is it a shit advert, but my reaction to somene hiding something in my drink and selling me something that I didn't order on purpose would be white hot rage.

Especially if it was a dubbed smarmy cunt on the the massive screen gloating about it.

And how do none of them realise that there is another cup inside their cup?

Just terrible.

Also it implies that there's no point in them selling regular, full fat coke. If Coke Zero really was identical in taste (and it's not) then why would you go for the unhealthier, more sugar-heavy, option.

I feel like these adverts shouldn't need explaining... but what's up with the Santander adverts will all the famous sports type people? Why are they just turning up in people's houses telling them random banking stuff and then just staring at them in a blank, soulless way?

I mean the one guy is just his in pants... and the women peacefully painting some fruit, when the golfer guy just appears and starts eating the apple she is painting... like a right dick.

Are the adverts saying that these sports people are our new gods and we must allow them to invade our lives while a shitty Spanish bank drain away the value of our money?

Makes perfect sense. He doesn't hate doing his job, but he hates the fact his job exists. The fact most of us mean the former when we say 'I hate my job' is our poor use of English, not his.

Today, I'm despising the latest Samsung advert, which uses a song which begins with the lyric 'I know people don't really fix things any more'. And then proceeds to tell you to buy a new Sansung washing machine when your current one breaks down, or better, before it does.

Bullshit, the guy's a cunt. He hates the fact he's helping people with heart disease.

The one that still pisses me off is that toothpaste/floss one where the woman flosses her teeth and asks if blood is normal. And then when he says "NO, YOU STUPID WHORE, BLEEDING FROM ANYWHERE BUT YOUR CAVERNOUS VAGINA AND ANUS IS NOT NORMAL" she nods like some great universal mystery has just been solved for her. Fuck right off.

One from the BBC for a change - the advert for this weekend's The Voice which starts with Jessie Fucking J mispronouncing the word 'Battle' in really quite an offensive way. I can't even mute it in time.

Remember: adverts are not people. They are what marketing companies, once filtered by their client's desires, think will appeal to the broadest possible sector of a market. They suck cos they treat people in such an odd way.

I should add that the good agencies do try and treat people like real people. The best are trying to change the patronising tone that many use.
